i love wearing my hair in a braid like that - it's the best way to get it off my neck in the summer and it makes me feel kinda like a fairy or like Laura Ingalls Wilder (she was my idol from about age 5-12).

I need more braids in my life. Why are they so darn good?! If only I was better at them. My Scandinavian friends are braid WIZ Goddesses...so so jealous. When they come to visit, I look like a prairie angel.
